Help your little learners explore patterns, symmetry, and number recognition with this delightful ladybird-matching game! Children match the two halves of each ladybird by pairing equal spots (1 spot and 1 spot), developing their understanding of patterns and symmetry in a playful way.
This resource supports early counting skills as children trace the corresponding numbers and count the spots on each side. Younger children can count up to 5, while more confident learners can extend their counting to 10, discovering simple number bonds (e.g., 5 + 5 = 10).
To enhance tactile learning, children can also use loose parts like counters or pom-poms to place on the ladybird spots, helping develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination.
What this supports in EYFS:
- Understanding the World: Exploring mini beasts and nature
- Mathematics: Recognising shapes, patterns, and number bonds
- Physical Development: Enhancing fine motor control through tracing and handling loose parts
- Expressive Arts and Design: Developing visual attention and colour/pattern matching
